Sheikh Hasina must face justice in Bangladesh, says senior BNP leader

Hindustan Times  

New Delhi: Former premier Sheikh Hasina must face justice in Bangladesh for “crimes she has committed,” including the deaths of hundreds of protesters in the uprising that toppled her government this week, a senior leader of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party said on Friday. Sheikh Hasina resigned and the PM and fled Bangladesh on Monday amid nationwide violent protests Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury, a former minister and member of the BNP’s standing committee, or highest policy-making body, declined to comment on India’s decision to let in Hasina after she resigned and fled Bangladesh on Monday and said the two countries have to now build their relationship. External affairs minister S Jaishankar, while briefing Parliament on developments in Bangladesh, said Hasina had sought approval at short notice to come to India “for the moment” but was silent on her ultimate destination. Getting rid of a neighbour isn’t an option, and we have to live in peace and harmony with each other.” The interim government led by Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus, which was sworn in on Thursday, will now oversee Bangladesh’s transition to a democratic process as well as the restoration of the electoral process, said Chowdhury, who was arrested about two months before his country’s last election in January 2024 and released two weeks after the polls were held.
